Rick Priestley said it best:
Bryan always said that if the studio ever had to mix with the manufacturing and sales part of the business it would destroy the studio. And I have to say – he wasn’t wrong there! The modern studio isn’t a studio in the same way; it isn’t a collection of artists and creatives sharing ideas and driving each other on. It’s become the promotions department of a toy company – things move on!

"It is the great irony of the Legiones Astartes: engineered to kill to achieve a victory of peace that they can then be no part of."
- Roboute Guilliman

"As I recall, your face was tortured. Imagine that - the Master of the Wolves, his ferocity twisted into grief. And yet you still carried out your duty. You always did what was asked of you. So loyal. So tenacious. Truly you were the attack dog of the Emperor. You took no pleasure in what you did. I knew that then, and I know it now. But all things change, my brother. I'm not the same as I was, and you're... well, let us not mention where you are now."

Good bloody call mate. GWs one are way too static and bland, death korp work nicely (their both ze germans anyway).
We are most amused by the unveiling of events.
Oh and friendly advice, read my signature.

Well considering tanks have changed a bit I figured the best tactics usually involve standing still then moving away/tank shocking them into clumps and burning the hell out of them. Against fliers I can still move 12" and snap fire out of back, its 6s anyway so it gives quite a bit of movement.
